At least he has got a sense of humor about it! Read on some blogs that Porsche NA is buying back that anomaly of a 991 C2S. But do I still want the GT3? Hell yeah!

The goal posts keep moving! Local P-car dealer has just confirmed that they have 2 speculative orders for Cayman GT4/R (not sure of the '4' was a typo).

Good grief!!
I am so spreading this around and I am sure that the few thousand dollars that Porsche has been trying to save will be regretted as I know for sure many P buyers will think twice after this video before buying another car unless they were at a point where they are rich enough to not care !!

Same on you Porsche and If BMW did this to me I will say shame on them too and any car company that doesn't honor or stand behind its product !!

BTW Paul Walker died in a P car but because Rodas was driving above 100 mph in a 40 mph zone or something ! P can't help with that... Trying to be fair here..

Shame
I was already thinking replacing my M5 with Turbo S soon but not happening with this ..

And the snow ball of lost potential customers will grow bigger in no time !!

I just got in touch with a friend of mine who has P 911 Turbo 2009 and said that this guys got a new Porsche instead !!
Is this true! !

Shame on this guy then if he did all that to just settle just for another a new one!!

But that should speak to him being a P fan then more than anything else. .. It is like fighting with the love of your life -

One bad apple does not a bad crop make (or crap like that). The guy obviously likes the car which is why he saved so long for it. I would say "well done" to him for realising that the marque is not like that and the bad experience he had can be replaced by a good one with the right car.

He may be innocent. Maybe there was a gap in the barrier and he went for it.

Something similar happened to me on foot. I was approaching a foot crossing and saw the light changing so I decided to cross the road ahead of the intersection. Turns out that the road was under construction and I walked into freshly laid cement. Sank in up to my knees. Got a little on my Canali briefcase.

Walked back into the lobby of the Park Hyatt covered in wet cement from from the knees down. Concierge asked me if I had an encounter with the Mafia.

Amazingly the hotel and a local shoe repair shop were able to save my suit, my bruno magli suede loafers and my briefcase.

Agree I think it was horrible, but expericences are based on what happens to you personally. I was appauled when I saw the video, but I will still buy a GT3 no problem.
